The 4000E immortalised<\/strong>
\n\u200bReleased in 1979, the 4000E console played a pivotal role in reshaping the way music was made, it dominated the studio landscape through the \u201880s & \u201990s and became the sonic signature of the era’s most iconic albums and tracks. Its big, punchy sound, advanced processing tools and ground-breaking flexibility meant it quickly became the tool of choice for the world’s top producers, engineers, and studios. The 4000E console has become a rare sight in studios of today. As this analogue icon enters the record production history books, Solid State Logic has expertly modelled the console’s legendary sonic character and workflow, capturing its legacy in plug-in form. This digital incarnation immortalises the 4000E in your DAW, with a level of precision and accuracy that only the original manufacturer of the ‘4K’ console can deliver.<\/p>\n

Living up to a legend<\/strong>
\n\u200bThe 4KE Plug-in lives up to the legend of the 4000E and imparts all the vibe and rich non-linear analogue character of the original console. 4K E Plug-in is a precise emulation, with modelling down to a component level, including the revered E Series EQ in all its flavours (Black, Brown, Orange), and hyper-realistic emulation of the Jensen T-115K-E transformer found on early 4000E mic pres. The dbx 202 \u2018gold can\u2019 fader VCA is also painstakingly modelled, offering multiple layers of harmonic saturation found throughout the circuit design.<\/p>\n

Virtual E Series console<\/strong>
\n\u200bAs with Channel Strip 2 and 4K B, 4K E Plug-in boasts first-class integration with SSL\u2019s UC1 controller, offering knob-per-function control of the plug-in in an intuitive, channel strip style layout. In addition to this, SSL 360\u2019s \u2018Plug-in Mixer\u2019, available free from the SSL website, provides users with a single place to view and control all 360-enabled plug-in\u2019s, essentially allowing users to build their own \u2018virtual\u2019 E Series console, or combine 4K B with Channel Strip 2 and 4K E for a \u2018custom\u2019 virtual SSL console.<\/p>\n
